A new chapter in life

I think I've been in a jumbled daze of overwhelming thoughts and planning since last week.  The brain has been working on my next phase in life. 

On Friday I had my typical morning of dropping the children off at school and heading to the gym.  Upon returning home I found the light flashing on the answering machine.  Excitedly but reserved I pressed the play button.  It was regarding the position I interviewed for.  So I called them back, and I'm sure needless to say by this point in the post-- I GOT THE JOB! However, it is contingent on me passing a background check.  But I have such a wild boring lifestyle I'm sure that everything will come out fine.

So, as I said, my thoughts have been in organizing mode.  I've got daycare set up for the kids, and they can eat breakfast at school.  The dog is will be jailed limited to the kitchen area by a gate, hopefully the long days won't be too much for him. I just need find me some new work clothes. And thanks to the intensive background check I'll have a couple weeks to prepare whatever else I need.

After all the stress I've felt about going back to work for the last year, this feels right and I'm actually excited to begin!
